Rosemary from seed

Any tips for starting rosemary from seed? I usually get a new start or 2 in the spring, this year no exception. Yesterday while browsing the seed racks at a box store picked up rosemary. Why not?! In doing the usual google could tell it takes a long time. Also one site mentioned dark, others did not. I figured if I can get some to germinate and up a bit, put in the qt pot. As we have 4 months yet before frost, may have a plant! Then keep it protected during the winter along with some other plants that can take some frost but not real cold, at least when small and in pots.

I just sown rosemary seeds. Sprinkle on top of moist soil mix, press down slightly. Keep moist, I used a spray bottle twice daily. And set it in a south window. It took one week, and now have little sprouts emerging. Good luck
